So if any of you are fishing fans hoping this might be a post about actual fishing? Sorry! Just another strained metaphor for how to optimize your brain and be happier and that kinda stuff.
Also, the post started to run long, so it's really more like "Catch and R... oh crap, I'm tired, let's finish this puppy up later." So it's just Part One, the "Catch" part.
And yeah, no actual fishing tips. I'm not an angler. But as a life and wellness coach, a former psychotherapist, and a lifelong crankpot neurotic whiner who has finally rewired her own brain for the better, I keep marveling at how much more important how we think and feel about the world is than mere flimsy "reality."
Like most of my advicey posts, I'm repeating stuff that has been said a million times before, much better than I can say it, though usually it doesn't come with swear words. Cranky Fitness readers are already way well-informed, so none of this will be a big News Flash.
Yet we need reminders and motivational encouragement, right? So here's some more cheerleading:
Control your own thoughts and feelings and Rule the World!
But... how the hell do you do that?
